Using Caller ID, Call Waiting, and Redial Lists

Seven-digit dialing

If you can make a local call by dialing only seven digits instead of ten, you can tell the phone to hide your local area code in the Caller ID list; any calls from outside your area code will show all ten digits. This setting applies to the base and all handsets currently connected to the same base.

To program your local area code:

) Press [Menu/Select].

2)Select the GLOBAL SETUP menu, and then the AREA CODE submenu.

3)Use the number keypad ([0] through [9]) to enter a three-digit area code. If an area code has already been stored, it appears in the display. Press [Clear/Int’com] on the handset or [Clear/Mute] on the base to delete the stored code, and then enter a new one.

4)Press [Menu/Select]. You will hear a confirmation tone.

Note: If you have multiple bases, select the base before programming the area code (see page 14).

The phone uses the stored area code as a filter. When a call comes in, the phone compares the incoming area code to the code programmed on the phone. If the two codes match, the station hides the area code in the Caller ID list.

When you are reviewing the Caller ID list, you can show the hidden area code by pressing [#]. Press [#] again to hide the area code.

When you dial from a Caller ID record or store a Caller ID record in the phonebook, the phone dials or stores the digits exactly as they appear on the display. If you need to use ten digits, be sure to press [#] to show the area code before you dial or store the number. (See page 28 to store a Caller ID record in the phonebook.)

Deleting Caller ID Numbers

To delete only one Caller ID number, press [] when the phone is in standby, and then find the number you want to delete. Press [Menu/Select] and select DELETE ENTRY. When the phone asks you to confirm, select YES.

To delete all the Caller ID numbers, press [] when the phone is in standby, and then press [Menu/Select]. When the phone asks you to confirm, select YES.

Notes: • When you delete a Caller ID number, you delete it permanently.

• Caller ID numbers are stored separately in each station. Deleting a record from one station will not delete the record from any other stations.
